The theory of evolution, like the theory of gravity, is a scientific fact. Evolution really happened. Accepting our kinship with all life on Earth is not only solid science. in my view, it's also a soaring spiritual experience.

Atheism, Religion, God is Imaginary, Faith, No Proof. Faith is belief without and against evidence and reason; coincidentally that's also the definition of delusion.

Atheism, Religion, God is Imaginary, Death, Morality, No Proof, Carl Sagan. The world is so exquisite with so much love and moral depth, that there is no reason to deceive ourselves with pretty stories for which there's little good evidence. Far better it seems to me, in our vulnerability, is to look death in the eye and to be grateful every day for the brief but magnificent opportunity that life provides.
